Breast augmentation uses breast implants which are either filled with a saline solution or silicone gel. Saline implants are inserted and then filled, and so require a smaller incision. Silicone gel filled implants, which were approved by the FDA for use in the United States in 2006, are pre-filled and so require a larger incision.
Breast augmentation is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your plastic surgeon. Together you will determine what specific size and style of implant to be used. Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure and will be given instructions about how to prepare.
On the date scheduled for your breast augmentation in Glendale, your surgeon may select from a variety of methods for inserting the implants. An incision will be made either along the crease where the breast and body meet (inframammary incision), along the edge of the dark area surrounding the nipple (periareolar inicision), in the armpit (transaxillary incision), and even the naval (a transumbilical, or TUBA). The patient should consult with Dr. Perry Jr. and determine which location is best to minimize the visibility of any scarring that may occur.
After the procedure, patients often experience soreness for a few days but are back into their normal lives within three to five days. Pain following the surgery can be minimized by medications prescribed by your surgeon. All procedures are performed with anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain.
It is important to follow any instructions your plastic surgeon may have following your breast augmentation . Patients should be aware that soreness will be present after the operation and that physical activity following the operation should be avoided for a period of time. Scarring from the operation does occur but will fade away gradually, although scars may never disappear completely.
